Once More Into the Breach…

“Once more into the breach, dear friends, once more, or fill the wall up with our English dead.”

With these words, Henry V urged his soldiers forward during the siege of Harfleur in 1415, heartening his weary soldiers to gather their remaining energy one more time. In retrospect this battle preserved the independence of England, which, of course, made it possible for the USA to be the USA…But that’s a different story, and not really the type of story I tell.

So anyways that was just what was going through my mind, so I figured it best to mention. As my study nears fruition, I know not what to do. It’s easier to sit around and be confined here, than it is to think of what you want in life and where you are going when you are “on the outside”.

Tomorrow is hell day 2.0, and then Sunday morning I leave. Back to my normal life. I have become friends with some people here, I have stirred up some business, I taught somebody how to use my subtle skills of slight of mouth, and I have had a thing with a pretty girl that I don’t even know how to define.

I will leave with my foot feeling all (so i’m projecting… so what) better, and some money in my pockets. However when I do, I will be faced with choices. Do I stay where I am at and continue to work for myself, or do I move somewhere and start anew.

I have decided for the time being not to decide. This being said, I will start the journey on my new decision by leaving here and letting life happen as it will. Some would probably consider this to be aimless, but my aim is simply to go with the flow.

I know that I have always gotten by and have managed to escape virtually unscathed. Bad times have been good learning experiences (and great blog entries), and the good times are well… good times.

At this point I should come up with a conclusion and some pithy wording to close out my post. It needs to be something that fits after the previous paragraph, but has a smartass feel to it. however due to an unexpected writers block I can think of no such thing that will fit. So feel free to write one for me in the comments! Thanks! Sincerely ~ TheSmartass
